Rafa's Red Missed 2:29pm on 27 Jan 2009 66. "It's funny how when he was bought all the Liverpool fans were saying it was a brilliant signing by RAFA but now that he's provd to be a bit of a lame duck suddenly Rick Parry forced the sale on Rafa."

Agreed - what a complete joke !

Benitez bleats about everything else, so why didn't he bleat it was nothing to do with him when Keane was bought.

Well at least Rafa is good at one thing - leaking constant BS to the press to put the blame for his awful team on Parry.

Deluded big time, the average Liverpool fan methinks
The perils of Football League management 12:34pm on 01 Jan 2009 It's so, so easy to say stick with a failing manager if it's not your business, and hence your money, involved.

Teams who do well by sticking with their manager, do so because they chose the right man in the first place and can see enough positives to remain confident in their decision. They are not successful because they stick with an obviously failing manager.

Take a company like Woolworths ?
In the opinion of the thirty odd thousand shop workers that are about to lose their jobs, how long should the management have been allowed to continue with the ludicrous strategy of presenting 21st century shoppers with row after row of pic&mix when entering the store?

So it is with football management. When it becomes clear that a manager has lost the plot, he has to go or the business itself is at risk.

At boardroom level, football is not a game!
Ince demise highlights flawed thinking 10:05pm on 16 Dec 2008 10. It seems to me that the biggest problem is that a player doesn't need to be that intelligent. A manager requires to be much more intelligent. Quite simply put, many great players don't have the brains to be a great manager.

Or in other words, it's got nothing to do with experience, training or coaching badges. Ince simply wasn't up to the job and never will be, any more than Brian Robson was.
Ince forced out by fear factor 2:41pm on 16 Dec 2008 The minute Ince started whinging about a media conspiracy, he was finished as Blackburn manager. It showed clearly that he is nowhere near as smart as he thinks he is.

And it's easy to say he should have got more time, when you are not having to make the decision or live with the consequences

If it were your business he was running, and you faced the possibility of financial ruin with him continuing in charge, you would swing the axe same as anyone else.
Incey Whingey 5:29pm on 08 Dec 2008 "Man U bigmouths who no-one really liked"

sums it up nicely
I soon as I heard his whinging, I knew it was over.
Bye bye Mr Ince, you won't last till Christmas
Barry saga leaving a sour taste 10:00pm on 04 Jul 2008 Lerner is putting down a marker. He knows Liverpool are vunerable and in direct competition for 4th place.
This is a high class game of poker, and Barry is just a pawn.
Barry saga leaving a sour taste 9:09pm on 04 Jul 2008 Gerrard0008 you are deluded - stop writing rubbish please - you don't know what you are talking about

Barry's going nowhere unless the fat waiter stumps up the cash
Barry saga leaving a sour taste 5:38pm on 04 Jul 2008 Gerrard0008, your talking rot
MON is a lawyer - I doubt you are

"Barry is still a Villa player, yes - how well do you think he'll perform after the way MON has treated him?"

Well enough to maintain his placein the England set-up - don't worry about that
Barry saga leaving a sour taste 4:54pm on 04 Jul 2008 Why does Phil keep saying "we all know how this is going to end" ?

No we don't

No doubt if Barry ends up staying at Villa, we'll be told 'it was obvious from day one that Barry was going nowhere'

these journos just make it up as they go along. They have no more insight than me or you !
